Briefing: https://www.iwef.
Key points:
- Sunflower is the keyword to link your application to the Island VI Form
- Internal deadline is December 9th (Don’t wait)
- Offers are received normally within a few days of application being submitted (Hence don’t wait)
- You are allowed 5 choices only
- Researching courses is the current priority
- Writing your personal statement is the next step
- Student service run a help session every Tuesday lunch time
If you are not planning to go to University, you need to be doing very similar things – your personal statement is the same as your letter of application, what skills and experiences do you have to offer a future employer?
If you are worried or confused about your next step, please ask for help. There is nothing wrong with applying for work and University if you are not sure – but doing nothing is a problem.
We are deep into the examination season now – remember to pace yourselves, rest and take time to relax and do enjoyable things as well as revision and preparation.
Finally, congratulations to Josh Sunnucks who took part in the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Pageant in London. Details of his wonderful experience can be found below.
Have a safe weekend.
